Improving

WRNI – All of us can benefit from inspiration as we march through life. Sometimes inspiration comes from remarkable people whose paths happen to cross ours, perhaps in our families, neighborhoods, classrooms, or places of worship. But as Michael Obel-Omia tells us, we can also be inspired by some rather unlikely sources. Michael

Obel-Omia is head of the Paul Cuffee School in Providence. He has been working in education as a teacher, coach, administrator, and school leader since 1988. He lives with his wife, Carolyn, and three children in Barrington.
